Case: A 34-year-old man presented at our hospital with knee collapse. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed posterior compression of the dural sac by a lumbar epidural lesion; however, a diagnosis could not be reached. Gadolinium (Gd)-enhanced 3-dimensional MRI (3D-MRI) clearly delineated the morphology, enabling us to make a preoperative diagnosis of posterior epidural migration of the lumbar disc fragment (PEMLDF).

Background: One-hole split endoscopy (OSE) is a novel endoscopic technique that offers some advantages in spinal surgery. However, without a clear understanding of the safe zone for OSE, surgeons risk injuring nerve roots during the procedure. This study aimed to measure the safe distances among critical bone markers, the intervertebral space and nerve roots between 1-degree degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DLS) and non-DLS at the L segment in patients via three-dimensional reconstruction and to compare the differences in relevant safety distances between the two groups.

Purpose Of Review: Low back pain (LBP) is considered an important issue of public health, with annual prevalence estimations almost achieving 60% of the worldwide population. Available treatments have a limited impact on this condition, although they allow to alleviate pain and recover the patient's quality of life. This review aims to go deeper on the understanding of this condition, providing an updated, brief, and concise whole picture of this common musculoskeletal problem.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Fascial Manipulation in patients with disc herniations of the lumbar spine confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging. This study included 69 patients with intervertebral disc damage of the lumbar spine, as confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging. Patients were divided into two groups: a study group and a control group.

Unlabelled: Due to the increasing number of people working at computers in professional settings, the incidence of lumbar disc herniation is increasing.
Background/objectives: The early diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation is much more likely to yield favorable results, allowing the hernia to be treated before it develops further. The aim of this study was to classify lumbar disc herniations in a computer-aided, fully automated manner using magnetic resonance images (MRIs).
